Case 19-10702-MFW Doc 257-1 Filed 06/10/19 Page 4 of 8

5. Pursuant to this stipulation (the “Stipulation”), the Claimant agrees to waive any and all claims against the Debtor Defendants that are not covered by insurance and agrees to seek recovery solely from the insurance coverage, if any, available under one or more policies available to the Debtor Defendants to satisfy the Claims (the “Available Coverage”). Debtors agree to use reasonable efforts to comply with all policy conditions and duties in order to keep all applicable policies in full force and effect.

6. The parties to the Stipulation have agreed to modify the Automatic Stay solely on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

It is hereby stipulated and agreed, subject to and in accordance with the Automatic Stay Order, by and among the parties to this Stipulation, as follows: 7. The Automatic Stay is hereby modified in Furmanite America, Inc. et al. v. Lisa Bueno Martinez, No. 18-0957 (Tex.), pending in the Supreme Court of Texas, solely to the limited extent necessary to enable (a) the Supreme Court of Texas to determine all pending Petitions for Review, (b) the Claimant to proceed against all defendants in a fully adversarial trial and judgment, (c) the Claimant to proceed with settlement demands, negotiations, and a settlement agreement, and (d) the Claimant to recover any liquidated final judgment or settlement on the Claims solely from Available Coverage. Any final judgment rendered by the trial court against, or any settlement with, any Debtor will be reduced by (x) the amount of any applicable deductible or self-insured retention under the applicable insurance policy and (y) any share of liability under the applicable insurance policy of any insolvent or non-performing insurer or co-insurer (or any reinsurer of any insolvent or non-performing insurer or co-insurer).

The Automatic Stay shall not be modified for purposes of permitting the Claimant to attempt to recover from any Debtor or Debtor’s estate for intentional conduct or punitive damages, except Case 19-10702-MFW Doc 257-1 Filed 06/10/19 Page 5 of 8

to the extent she may do so from the Available Coverage. The Claimant may seek punitive or exemplary damages from the Available Coverage.

8. It is expressly understood by the Claimant that (i) the Automatic Stay is hereby modified solely with respect to the specific Claims of the Claimant identified herein and (ii) the Claimant may seek satisfaction of the Claims only as set forth herein, and that in no event will any of the Debtors, their estates or any other Debtor Defendant be liable to the Claimant in any other way whatsoever with respect to the Claims.

9. Claimant on behalf of herself, her heirs, representatives and assigns, does hereby fully, finally and forever waive, release and/or discharge the Debtors (and related persons as described below) from and any all claims and other Liabilities (as defined below) arising from or relating in any way to the Explosion to the extent they are not covered or excluded by the Available Coverage. The persons released include the Debtors, their estates (except the Available Coverage as provided for herein), the Debtor Defendants, and their respective heirs, successors, assigns, affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, associates, parents, subsidiaries, predecessors, successors, employees, attorneys and agents (the “Released Persons”). The Liabilities released include claims, debts, demands, rights, interests, actions, suits, causes of action, cross-claims, counter-claims, charges, judgments, setoffs, liabilities, or any obligations of any kind whatsoever (however denominated), fees, costs, penalties, damages whenever incurred, and liabilities of any nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, direct or indirect claims, damages, interest, attorneys’ fees, and any other costs, expenses or liabilities whatsoever).

Released claims and Liabilities include those based on federal, state, local, statutory or common law, in equity, or on any other law, rule, regulation, ordinance, contract, whether fixed or contingent, known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, suspected or unsuspected, asserted or Case 19-10702-MFW Doc 257-1 Filed 06/10/19 Page 6 of 8

unasserted, matured or unmatured, prepetition unsecured, priority, or administrative. Claimant does not waive, release, or discharge her claims against Debtors’ co-defendants in Furmanite America, Inc. et al v. Lisa Bueno Martinez, No. 18-0957, pending in the Supreme Court of Texas. Claimant does not waive, release, or discharge any claims within the scope of the Available Coverage.

10. In the event that any of the Debtors’ estates shall be legally obligated to bear any costs of defending Claimant’s Claim, including attorneys’ fees, the modification of the Automatic Stay provided for in this order shall terminate automatically without further order of this Court. Such termination shall be without prejudice to Claimant’s right to seek relief from the Automatic Stay.

11. The agreement by the Debtors to the modification of the Automatic Stay on the terms and conditions set forth herein shall not be deemed an agreement by the Debtors to provide assistance to or to cooperate with the Claimant in any way in the efforts of the Claimant to prosecute the Claims or secure payment on the Claims under the Available Coverage.

12. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed an admission of liability or otherwise on the part of the Debtors or their insurance carriers with respect to the Claims.

13. Nothing in this Stipulation shall be deemed or construed to impact, impair, affect, determine, release, waive, modify, limit or expand: (i) the terms and conditions of any insurance policy, (ii) any of the rights, remedies, defenses to coverage and other defenses of any insurer under or in respect of any insurance policy (including the right of any insurer to disclaim coverage) or (iii) any claim or payment right of any insurer against any of the Debtors including, but not limited to, any claim or payment right for, on account of, arising from or related to any premium, deductible, reimbursement, self-insured retention or otherwise. All such rights, Case 19-10702-MFW Doc 257-1 Filed 06/10/19 Page 7 of 8

remedies, defenses, defenses to coverage, claims and payment rights are expressly reserved and preserved. All rights of indemnification against non-Released Persons, and all rights of subrogation and contribution are expressly reserved and preserved. Furthermore, nothing in this Stipulation shall affect the existing obligations of any insurer to pay defense fees or expenses or the existing arrangements for the payment thereof.

14. The modification of the Automatic Stay as set forth herein shall have no effect on other claims or claimants that are not a party to this Stipulation, and the Automatic Stay shall remain in full force and effect with respect to any such claimants or claims against the Debtors and their estates.

15. Neither this Stipulation, nor any terms contained herein shall be offered or received in evidence or in any way referred to in any legal action or administrative proceeding among or between the parties hereto, other than as may be necessary: (a) to obtain approval of and to enforce this Stipulation, (b) to seek damages or injunctive relief in connection therewith or (c) to prove that the Automatic Stay has been modified to allow prosecution of the Claims in accordance with the terms hereof.

16. This Stipulation may be signed in counterpart originals and delivered by facsimile or email, which, when fully executed, shall constitute a single original.

17. This Stipulation constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties regarding the Stipulation and the subject matter thereof. The terms set forth in this Stipulation are part of a comprehensive compromise and each element is an integral aspect of the agreed settlement and is non-severable.

18. The Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction (and the Claimant consents to such retention of exclusive jurisdiction) with respect to any disputes between Debtors and Claimant Case 19-10702-MFW Doc 257-1 Filed 06/10/19 Page 8 of 8

arising from or other actions to interpret, administer or enforce the terms and provisions of this Stipulation. Debtors’ Counsel shall serve Claimant’s Counsel by email at [email protected] with any motion seeking to alter, interpret, or enforce the Automatic Stay as to Claimant or this stipulation. Claimant reserves the right and option to enforce a judgment and otherwise seek relief from Debtor’s insurance carriers and the Available Coverage in courts other than this Court.

19. Each of the undersigned counsel represents that he/she is authorized to execute this Stipulation on behalf of his/her respective client.

20. This Stipulation is effective upon submission to the Court without further order of Court and shall not be modified, altered, amended or vacated without written consent of all parties hereto, subject to Court approval.
